Change the ICONS Reader7.0 for .PDF files

I have tried everything I know.
Explorer>Folder Options>File Types>.PDF>Advanced>Change Icon
or whatever and NOTHING WORKS.
Now I want my ICONS back that were under version 6.0
Not the one that 7.0 assigns to the .PDF files.
I have not been able to change it.
Does anyone know how to?
A REGISTRY KEY
and what I am looking for
I just want the ICON that was there when I Reader 6.0 for .PDF files.
That's all....
It sucks that Adobe doesn't let it get changed...(Just don't like the icon, too much white border around it).

I have found that Text-to-Speech works just fine in Yosemite's Preview application — without changing any standard settings. I added additional voices, and it works equally well with these too. You should not expect Text-to-Speech functionality with text that is incorporated into a graphic though.
Both Edit > Speech > Start Speaking, and after enabling in Text-to-Speech Preferences, Speak selected text when the key is pressed (option+Esc).

Pdf on Windows 8;How do I get adobe to be the default app for pdf files.

I installed pdf reader on my windows 8 laptop, but windows only opens with its "TWINUI". In its "other" option acrobat reader doesn't appear. It also doesn't appear on the windows desktop.

Make Acrobat the default reader for pdf-files.

Since some time (probably after I installed Mavericks) pdf-files are by default opened
in Preview. To open them in Adobe Acrobat, I can right-click the pdf-file, choose Acrobat,
and indicate that Acrobat should be the default reader for pdf-files.
This works, and after logout and login, it does still work.
But after a reboot, Preview is again the default reader.
Also, if in Finder I right-click a pdf-file, and via Get Info I configure Acrobat
to be the default reader for the specific file and all other pdf-files (by clicking
Change All), this only works for the current session. After a reboot Preview again is the
default.
How can I make Acrobat Reader the default reader for pdf-files, and make this setting
permanent?
Where is this setting saved?
Regards,
Kees.

I finally solved this, but I still don't understand how.
To begin with I have 2 hard-drives in my iMac. The OS is on the primary HD, and data are on the secondary drive. My Home directory too is on this secondary HD.
To check whether the location of the Home directory might be the problem, I copied the Home directory to the primary HD, changed the path in my profile, and did a reboot.
The next step was to configure Adobe Acrobat as the default reader for pdf-files. To my surprise, after rebooting, Acrobat still was the default reader for pdf-files.
So it looks as if this problem has something to do with the location of the Home directory.
The original Home directory was still present on the secondary HD, So the next step was to change in my profile the path to the Home directory again (pointing again to the original Home directory on the second HD), do a reboot and delete the copy of the Home directory on the primary HD.
So now the situation was back to as it was before: the Home directory on the second HD.
To my surprise now Acrobat still was the default reader for pdf-files.
And I could also change the default reader to Preview, and back to Acrobat, and this setting was saved across reboots.
I'm curious to what solved this problem, and where the setting of the default pdf-reader, or more general, the default application for file types, is stored.
So I hope that someone who reads this, can shed some light on this.

Changing the default program for a file format

I was folloing the steps to change the default program to open a PDF, by going to Get Info > Open width > Adobe Acrobat and pressed Change All. All the PDF got changed to open with Acrobat Reader, but the next time, after I boot up the computer everything is back as it was, PDF files are opening with Preview and not Acrobat...
How to change it for once and for all?
Thanks

I been working hours on the same problem as lessismo. I've deleted every Adobe file and folder in the user's library, deleted preferences, etc. and can't seem to find a solution. It works fine when I login as a different user so I know it's not the machine. Any suggestions?

How do i change the access rights for every file in every sub-folder?

I have an external drive that was shared between my PC and my iMac (running Snow Leopard 10.6.5).
Some of the files created by my PC have the following access rights (privileges):
Me: Custom
staff: Custom
everyone: Custom
I want every file to have the following access rights (privileges):
Me: Read & Write
staff: Read & Write
everyone: Read & Write
I presume that I need to go into the terminal and run some command line program, but I have no idea what program or what options (or even where to look for such a program). Can someone tell me how to do this, so that every file in every sub-folder has the same access rights?

Well, that's different. Most people do not install anything on their PC to read an HFS+ disk, so I assumed it was formatted for the PC. [See my above post|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12843313#12843313].
Note that it is the same as what you asked about, except with numbers instead of the letter equivalents.
Posix permissions are for User;Group;Other (ugo) and each one can have read/write/execute permissions. Read = 4, Write = 2, and Execute = 1. So, for rwx you set 421=7.
I try to make it safe by not typing in the file path. If you do what you posted, you will change the startup volume's permissions. The path to your external is /Volumes/ext hd mount point. If you start typing the path and accidentally hit return before finishing the full path, you could fubar something you didn't want to. So, I type the command, leave a space, and then drag the target to the Terminal window.
You might also consider the GUI based permission changing program, [BatChmod|http://www.macchampion.com/arbysoft/BatchMod/Welcome.html].

Where can I change the buffer size for LKM File to Oracle (EXTRENAL TABLE)?

Hi all,
I'd a problem on the buffer size the "LKM File to Oracle (EXTRENAL TABLE)" as follow:
2801 : 72000 : java.sql.SQLException: ORA-12801: error signaled in parallel query server P000
ORA-29913: error in executing ODCIEXTTABLEFETCH callout
ORA-29400: data cartridge error
KUP-04020: found record longer than buffer size supported, 524288, in D:\OraHome_1\oracledi\demo\file\PARTIAL_SHPT_FIXED_NHF.dat
Do you know where can I change the buffer size?
Remarks: The size of the file is ~2Mb.
Tao

Hi,
The behavior is explained in Bug 4304609 .
You will encounter ORA-29400 & KUP-04020 errors if the RECORDSIZE clause in the access parameters for the ORACLE_LOADER access driver is larger than 10MB and you are loading records larger than 10MB. Which means their is a another limitation on read size of a record which is termed as granule size. If the default granule size is less then RECORDSIZE it limits the size of the read buffer to granule size.
Use the pxxtgranule_size parameter to change the size of the granule to a number larger than the size specified for the read buffer.You can use below query to determine the current size of the granule.
SELECT KSPFTCTXPN PARAMETER_NUMBER,
KSPPINM PARAMETER_NAME,
KSPPITY PARAMETER_TYPE,
KSPFTCTXVL PARAMETER_VALUE,
KSPFTCTXDF IS_DEFAULT,
KSPPIFLG MODIFICATION_FLAG,
KSPFTCTXVF VALUE_FLAG
FROM X$KSPPI X, X$KSPPCV2 Y
WHERE (X.INDX+1) = KSPFTCTXPN AND
KSPPINM LIKE '%_px_xtgranule_size%';
There is no 'ideal' or recommended value for pxxtgranule_size parameter, it is safe to increase it to work around this particular problem. You can set this parameter using ALTER SESSION/SYSTEM command.
SQL> alter system set "_px_xtgranule_size"=10000;
Thanks,
Sutirtha

How to change the name of a pdf file in iBooks on ipad

I have a number of appliance and tool manuals as pdf files uploaded to my iPad. In order to identify them easier I would like to change the names of the files. I changed them in iTunes on my computer but they do not change on the iPad2 when I sync. Is there a way to do this?

Greg,
I had been working on this a while and found what worked. Save the pdf to your desktop with the file name as you want it. Open up itunes on half of your monitor. Drag the file to the library section of itunes (music, videos, books, movies etc...). When you drag to the library section, it will put it the book section of itunes. Sync and you will see the file in ibooks on your ipad. Give it shot.

Making Preview the Default App for .pdf Files

When I click on a .pdf file (such as one attached to an e-mail) it now opens in Acrobat Reader; it formerly opened in Preview (which I preferred). I don't recall making any changes and wondered if the "Preview as default" was changed in the recent OSX update. Can I set a preference somewhere to again have .pdf docs opened in Preview?

Hello,
To open a document with a specific application:
In the Finder, select the document and choose File > Get Info.
In the Info window, click to show the "Open with" pane.
Choose the application you want to use from the pop-up menu.
If you want ALL documents that have the same file type as this one to open with the same application, click Change All.

How do I change the print orientation for PDFs with mixed orientation pages?

I'm sure this is a fairly basic and easily solvable issue, but I've been searching for a solution and can't find one for the life of me.
The issue: I'm printing a PDF that will be bound book-style, and the file contains pages with mixed orientations (both portrait and landscape). When I print the file, the landscape pages point the wrong way, to the left of the spine, when they should be pointing down to the right of the spine. I've adjusted the print settings for multiple test rounds, and nothing seems to work. Here's a visualization of the problem (apologies for the bad Paint art):
What the book is doing now when it prints:
What I need it to do:
Here's the caveat: I cannot just rotate all the landscape pages counter-clockwise in Acrobat for ease of printing, because it would remove the ability to scroll through the file quickly in Reader or a Web browser, and the same file needs to be both easily readable digitally AND print correctly.
Is this adjustment a print setting? Is this a tool I'm overlooking within Acrobat? Is this outside the scope of what is adjustable? All advice is welcome, and please feel free to ask any follow-up questions if I explained my problem unclearly.

If you are trying booklet printing, try to rotate the pages as needed before you print to the booklet. If you are print booklets without using professional imposition software, then Quite Imposing or Quite Imposing Plus should be considered. I believe they offer a demo version.

How I may change the encoding names for downloaded files?

I have some problem with encoding when I download files from russian sites. The downloaded files look like this "ìîé êàáèíåò - èíôîðìàöèÿ"

Firefox, as is, will only download the file. You can choose where the file is
saved, but that's it.
Go to the '''''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/ Mozilla Add-ons Web Page]''''' {web link}
(There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for '''download managers.'''
Many of them give you a chance to change the file name.

How to make Preview the default reader for pdf files online?

Hi everyone,
Many product manufacturers put their product's broucher in pdf form online. I've tried the screen shot capture method for saved pdf files but when the file won't even open online, how do I get to even capture a screen shot in the first place? Is the problem in Safari 6? Many thanks in advance.

Hi Anthony,
So, you're instincts were correct - it is Safari.....
I use Firefox as my browser (I'm not a big fan of Safari or on Windows, of Explorer). When I clicked on your brochure in Firefox, it comes up with a little window asking me what I want to do with the file - and with the "Open With" Preview" button checked.
When I do the same with Safari, it opens a new Safari window, displaying it online, but not downloading it.
So, don't know if you want to download Firefox, but did want to let you know that's why it was working differently for me!
Good luck with this - hope you are able to get it to work out for you!
Cheers,
GB

Firefox keeps changing the way it handles PDF files. Why?

I have been pulling my hair out over this one. When I click on a PDF file, I'm asked for a "save" location. When I set the application option to preview PDF files, it does so until I re-start Firefox, at which point it reverts back to "Save File." It's driving me mad.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Unknown

Bump. I have the same problem; in fact, it is also described here: [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/826904 http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/826904]
WHY does this happen? Still no answer from Mozilla. Very disappointing...

Is there a way to change the Digitised Date for Mov files in Lightroom?

I am scanning some old photos. Unfortunately Programs such as Dropbox and OneDrive display Mov files by their digitised Date.
Consequently, My scanned photos are shown by the date that I scanned them. I can not seem to find anyway in LightRoom to change the Digitised Date so that they are shown on OneDrive/Dropbox in the correct order on my iPad.
Any help would be appreciated.

Your subject line says "Mov files" (which are video files), but your message talks about scanning old photos. I'll address the old photos issue.
Because there are so many dates/times associated with photos, and because every program feels free to use its own names, it's critical to be pedantically precise about terminology. The date/time a photo was originally taken (when the shutter was pressed) is called Date/Time Original or Capture Date. The date/time a photo was transferred to digital media is called Date/Time Digitized (when the analog file was scanned or when the digital-camera shutter was pressed).
A good rule of hygiene is to ensure every photo has a Date/Time Original (capture date). Typically only digital archivists care about maintaining Date/Time Digitized. If you ensure that every photo has a Date/Time Original, then pretty much any modern app and Web site will order your photos correctly.
In LR, you set Date/Time Original using the Metadata > Edit Capture Time command. By default, LR won't write the capture time back to the file's metadata, so depending on how you are transferring photos to other programs, the capture time won't necessarily get transferred. So you either need to do Metadata > Save Metadata To File, or better, set the option Catalog Settings > Metadata > Automatically Write Changes Into XMP.
Unfortunately, LR's Edit Capture Time isn't very flexible with dealing with scanned photos in which the precise date/time is not known. So some people like to set an entire batch to, say, 1963/10/01 00:00:00, while others like to have each photo set in increasing increments of 1 second, so that programs will at least maintain the known relative ordering (which comes from the film or slide ordering). To do that, you'll need a third-party plugin, e.g. ExifMeta or CaptureTime To EXIF.
